Description Adrian Schröter 2008-11-07 07:36:14 UTC

Adding factory with zypper looks like it works, but has no content afterwards. This is because the type is set to "NONE", when using "-t yast2" it works fine.
But it should IMHO detect yast2 repos automatically or fail instead of setting it to NONE.

zypper sa  http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/oss/ Factory

Please note that 'sa' is not a zypper command. Use -r (--rug-compatible) global option if you want rug's behavior. See the comments (esp. c#2) in the duplicate for explanation.

JFYI: what you want in zypper's language is:

$ zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/oss/ Factory

ar as addrepo.
